Ventajas
Majority of the immediate colleagues are great, reliable and helpful. Good opportunity to start out in publishing as the company will make you experience a lot of aspects of it when hired.
Desventajas
No HR. Pension is a joke (considering the company’s reputation and affiliation). Top-down culture is hugely felt. Upper management is blind and deaf to staff’s overloaded work capacity and undermines junior/younger members as employees. The company is like a “family” in the most toxic way possible: upper management have their favourites and they take everything personal. If you’re not the favourite, you’ll have to scratch your way to get some crumbs off the table. No reward for hard work, just more work. No system for salary appraisal, you have to fight your way for a raise. No real career progression, just empty titles and promises. If there is, you’ll have to demand it. And if you demand too much, they’ll police your tone.
